In Loving Remembrance
Katharine R. Bemis,
Died March 15, 1890
Holy Bible
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
God in His wisdom has recalled
The boon His love had given;
And though the body moulders here,
The soul is safe in Heaven.

The back of the card is marked: G. L. Utter & Co. Memorial Cards, 114 Dearborn St., Chicago. The spelling of the first name, "Katharine", is as printed on the card; whether it is a variant or a printer's mistake cannot now be known.
